30 ARRESTED OVER SUSPICION IN INCITING UNREST
- 30 people were arrested over suspicion in inciting disorders in Yerevan on March 1. Some of them were tried earlier, even more than once, RA prosecutor general’s spokesperson Sona Truzyan said. “The special investigation group is taking all essential measures to detect all organizers and participators in recent confusion,” he said. On March 1 morning the Armenian police dispersed a rally of Ter-Petrosyan’s supporters in Liberty Square. The protest action was continued at the French Embassy and ended in disorders, clashes with police and looting. In the evening President Kocharian declared 20-day state of emergency.

Իհարկէ այս ամենի մեջ նաև իշխանություների մեղավորությունը կա: Նրանք հիմնովին չեն լուծում երկրում եղած արդարության և տնտեսական խնդիրները, բայց կարծում եմ որ ամենա շատ մեղավորը ԼՏՊ-ն է որը ստորին ձևով օգտագործեց այն!
